This is the most recent information about A*Teens that has been submitted to amIright. If we have more information about A*Teens, then we provide a link to the section where it appears (the actual page whenever possible).
Band Name Origins:
- Almost right about A*Teens changing name from ABBA Teens to sing their own song, but just almost. But the truth is that Benny Andersson among others were threatening to sue them bigtime for using their name if they didn't change it quick. And just a few weeks after, voila: A-Teens! Submitted by: Fredrik
- The A*Teens started out as the ABBA Teens due to the fact the started as a cover band for ABBA. If you notice in their first video "Mamma Mia", it would say in one part ABBA Teen time (18:45, of course 6:45 PM). They decided to shorted for maybe two reasons: 1) They wanna do non-ABBA songs, which They did 2) Bjorn from the ABBA might have asked them, I think? so that's how the A*Teens came up with the name.

So what; his name was Peter the Great The kings and queens will have to wait 'Cause I don't have forever |
Story about this misheard lyric by: Hu’s On First I thought “Beeda the Great” was an sarcastic nickname the male singer was using to refer to an authority figure (like his mom or his teacher) whom he couldn’t stand. I also thought the singers were imagining themselves as royalty in the future, rather than talking about actual historical royals. |
